To Compost or Not to Compost
While fish _will_ nibble the roots of W.Hyacinth, are you sure that was the
cause? Hyacinths often fail to thrive when there's a potassium (iirc - I always get my potassium/phosphorus mixed up) deficiency. They go yellow, _then_ they lose their roots. How do I stop this? I feed the fish everyday during the summer months . If it is the fish, netting around the roots helps. I didn't add any fertilizer to the pond for the hyacinth. It was my first year last year with these plants. Should I give them any treatment other than throwing them in. Get then to a hydroponics.com franchise. Use potassium sulphate or potassium nitrate (if you're nitrates are low). And use the iron+trace mix. These are whan you're deficient in. -- Need Mercedes parts? http://parts.mbz.org Richard Sexton | Mercedes stuff: http://mbz.org 1970 280SE, 72 280SE | Home pages: http://rs79.vrx.net 633CSi 250SE/C 300SD | http://aquaria.net http://killi.net |
